Surrealist Games-Teacher's Models (Part 1)

The images in this post are based off an assignment from my Theory and Practice class. With the assignment, we had to refer back to an article on "Surrealist Games" from blackboard and create 2 teacher models based on 2 of the surrealist games. The 2 I chose were 'Exquisite Corpse' and 'Other Ways of Making Text.' These images are only showing part 1 of the what I want to do with this project. I would love to take the 'E.C.' drawing I have and create an actual 3D model based on the subjects in the picture. This is also what I would like to do with my lesson plan for the assignment..create a 3D model based on a 2D drawing. This assignment will allow for communication between a group of students and will have children work with each others ideas in order to create the final piece(s).

"The Exquisite Corpse"

In this piece, I had a great deal of fun doing this. This drawing is an accumulation based on things that 2 of my friends and I came up with. Seeing how the drawing came out made me quite excited to see how the 3D model would turn out as well...will definitely have a surrealistic quality to it.

"Other Ways of Making Text"

In this piece, I found a magazine ad that caught my attention about witches in the 17th century. I took the book description, a critic's statement and an overview of the novel and cut up the words. I then placed the words in a hat and picked out one at a time. Whatever way they were chosen was the way I rearranged them back onto the page.
